Bangkok: Stories and Recipes from the Heart of Thailand

This was very out of my usual wheelhouse of vegetarian and vegan cookbooks. That being said, there were veggie options.

First, the cookbook is beautiful. The recipes seem to have great flavor profiles and for someone wanting to learn to cook Thai food it is an easy 4/5 stars.

The only drawback is really only a problem if you live outside of an urban area with access to some of the more difficult to find ingredients. In most recipes there were a couple ingredients that would absolutely have to be chased down.

Admittedly that is an expectation when looking at learning to cook food specific from a region but it is something about which a reader should be aware.
